2 ongoing convos are dovetailing rn:
1. a holiday shopping $ blackout aimed at big business;
2. worry over small presses closing or paring down.
Let's talk direct action: YOU CAN DO BOTH😀

Remembering the time that I ordered a signed, numbered copy of All Will Writhe by Sam Richard @sammytotep.bsky.social from Weird Punk Books @weirdpunkbooks.bsky.social and requested number 19.
The reply was simple:
I will make this happen!
It still makes me smile.
Thank you both (all) again!

Weirdpunk is woefully behind this year on basically everything. Sorry if you're waiting on me. I'm trying to get outta this cave, but it has been super difficult. Looking for hope. Looking for passion. Looking for that part of myself that needs to create.
Everything is so far away right now.

I spent all weekend surrounded by friends, engrossed in conversations about writing, publishing, creativity, forging a truly diy approach, shit-talking, friend-praising, and more. Honored to call these fucks friends, and to have made new ones.
I took zero photos but made the front page of a paper.

Stoked for y'all to read it!

I haven't been active much on here lately as we recently moved and let's just say that life has been pretty chaotic for about 3 months. Been doing some rad events, been looking into the future of the press, been trying to dig out of some time-holes. All in all it's good but stressful.

—the more friends they lose. I hated the ending to that one (complimentary—it couldn’t have ended any other way). Richard’s collection probes the depths of grief and isolation in a way I wasn’t expecting, and made me sad just as often as it scared me. You should check it out.
